I called Schumer and Gillibrand just now. If you are in NYS, please call and make it clear to our senators that their constituents do NOT want this!
Oh for the love of

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

Mamdani got a humanities degree.
His win helps to illustrate that one of the central forces driving higher ed’s dissolution of the humanities is the fear that teaching people how power works can also lead to their interest in seizing it on behalf of the less powerful.

A beautiful reflection from my dear friend @lmansley.bsky.social about the role @nursingclio.bsky.social played in her history career after she left her PhD program. NC has been such a pivotal experience in so many of our lives, and I’m so very grateful for it. www.historians.org/perspectives...
